Epa!

The secret is he didn't make use of the power of firearms in quenching the anger of the protesters!

While Lagos government resulted in using firearms in quenching the anger of the protesters!!

The is the right thing to do!

The anger cannot be suppressed by killing more young persons!!

And the young persons should stop the looting and destruction of properties!!!

Let everyone embrace peace!

The soldiers and police should stop shooting protesters

The protesters should stop burning public property.

Two wrongs don't make a right!

Peace is priceless!!

I still insist that offline protest should be suspended for now.


I believe the people have made a statement which the government has heard.

I appeal to everyone to bring a stop to this offline protest for the now, but we can continue with the online protest.

Let us give the ruling class like 1 year or 2 years to change from their mediocre or bad governance to good governance.

We cannot continue to shut down socioeconomic activities because there are people who depend on daily earning for their survival.

I want everyone to contribute to this.

Forming hard guy because Government decided not to use force yet

I watched the video of the Benin Prison break, without police firing any shot or stopping them, I was just laughing


.

Is like you didn't watch the videos?

The policemen knew the boys were with AK 47 riffles and that's why they didn't face them directly.

I concur to what the creator of this thread wrote!


I grew up around that locality!!


I'm not a gangster today because I grew up in a morally upright background.

I'm not in support of what the boys from that locality did yesterday;but the ruling class(the government) are taking the people for fools and their governance is mediocre in developmental strides.

Something is really cooking in Just Energy ($JE)!
Any bright future prospect?

I had sweats in the nights in the early days for like 2 or 3 days, but now no sweat, except during afternoon sometime. major issue is the chronic inflammation all around the body, pains on the shoulder blade, and muscles. white patches on the mouth, tingering feet.

Don't worry about the STD.

There is a natural cure for it and it is not expensive.

I don't want to mention the name of the natural cure here because of those who only believe in chemical(pharmaceutical) drugs and they will rebuke me for mentioning the name of the natural cure.

If you are interested inbox me and I will tell you the name of the natural cure and where you can get it.

Note: I will never ask you for N1 before I tell you.

Superstition is the bane of Nigeria,most Nigerians ascribe every occurrence in their daily life to the spirit realm

Consequently, superstition promotes mediocrity.And mediocrity directly and indirectly promotes corruption.

Mediocrity and corruption propagate underdevelopment! And underdevelopment gives rise to poverty.

Back then who send teaching job but right now teaching job looks very Lucrative and attracting in the eyes of job seekerd. And the exploitation and segregation continue, even getting a teaching job is by man no man.

You know what any time I look at Nigeria, I can't hold it but shake my head and shrug my shoulder . A country almighty God blessed with optimum population and lots of natural endowment wasting away while countries that have little of what we have keeps making exploits and pursuing a common goal of making the world a better place by ensuring good life of its Citizens.

If Nigeria were to be a country, mehn it would have folded since 30 years ago. How can you have herders at the helm of affairs and expect a magic turn around. mehn you can't give what you don't have.

To my dear Undergraduates please and please don't spend all your years in the University burning candles upon candle. If you read small just tap yourself and remind yourself that there is no job out there. Go out and build the spirit of hustlng. If you raise small money, start Photocopying business, buy Keke if you have the money or start a Barbing Saloon or even you can sell Okirika, just come to Lagos and buy and sell in the Campus. If you are a girl you can start hairdresser, manicure center, make up business or bead making.

When you graduate and go for service, build your contact and make friends with the sons of the rich if you are not unfortunate to be sent to interior village like Ikwo in Ebonyi state.


To the u employed graduate out there. Time have come when you must tell yourself the bitter truth orherwise you live I penury and reggret of ever acquiring that certificate. Dumb that certificate in that your rusty box, fold your arms, your trouser and enter the street. If you see whoever that will give you Keke Carry, if it is Camera you can lay your hands on, become a Mobile Photographer. Go into the market learn skills like phone repair, Latest TV repair or computer repair and make money. Some of the dirty looking guys you see everyday ae making the money companies cannot pay any of their staff.


The Bitter truth is that living in Nigeria now, o e need to think out of the box. You can equally become a Freelancer online and make money conveniently fron the comfort of your home without answering anybody sir. With the cost of running Coperate organisation going up everyday , Corperate organsiations are now resorting to engaging freelancers for diiferent t services such as graphics design, digital marketing or Mobile App development.

The irony is that First school leaving certificate owner is the president while a law graduate is now a sales girl and a Engineering graduate is now a primary school teacher.

May God help Nigerians
People are losing it everyday.

You are right!

I saw an advertisement of recent that teachers who are have the 'fear of God' are needed for immediate employment and the monthly salary is just N10,000 per month.

Markets love retests, but you can not predict when.
If it discovers the point is weak, Janet appears....
The earlier the retest the better, to avoid inferred political interpretations that will wax to a halt the slow grinding engines of the exchange.
This is the time to arrange your cash like military formations, approach the market purely from a war perspective.
Have a clear and well defended retreat passage. Never move all your army to any one battle, your friendly neighbours may have been submissive enemies of necessity and may have been keenly waiting for an opportunity.
Never rush to fire at a few wandering soldiers and expose your location....
Use more snippers at this stage....

I'm in agreement with your submission!

The current stage of the NSE can be likened to warfare!!

We all must act with great care at this stage of the NSE!!!

They've Been Building
This Steel Factory for 40
Years and It Still Hasn't
Produced Anything
bloomberg.com

On a hot April morning, workers are
furiously cleaning a decorative fountain in
front of the executive office of Nigeria’s
largest steel complex. An onsite power
plant is being repaired by electricians.
Others around the 39-year-old facility are
clearing brush. In the middle of it all,
administrator Abdul-Akaba Sumaila is
meeting in turn with the 20 or so people
crowding his waiting room, a mix of
union officials, local politicians and job
applicants.
When one young man pulls a filled-out
form from a wrinkled envelope, Sumaila
asks him about his background, pats his
back and encourages him to stay positive.
Soon, he says, Ajaokuta Steel will start
hiring. After that, it may actually
make some steel.
The dilapidated factory complex has
never managed to produce a single bar,
coil or rod. Built with Soviet assistance,
the sprawling facility has sucked up $8
billion in public investment and been
hamstrung by repeated stops and starts,
ownership changes, poor governance and
sheer incompetence. It’s a tortured
history that mirrors Nigeria’s broader
attempts to develop a sustainable
economic base beyond fossil fuels.
President Muhammadu Buhari has put a
high priority on getting the plant into
production, hopefully by selling it to
private investors. But the legal, technical
and political problems illustrate in
microcosm—albeit a three-square-mile
microcosm—many of the challenges that
bedevil Nigeria’s diversification drive.
Sumaila, a mechanical engineer who’s
taken a three-year leave of absence from
Royal Dutch Shell Plc to try to revive
Ajaokuta, is undeterred. “What excites me
is the enormous potential of this place,”
he said in his office at the plant.
“Whatever we need to do, we have to do
it.”
The economic imperatives are clear.
Nigeria depends on crude for 90 percent
of its export earnings. With global oil
prices significantly below their past highs
of more than $100 a barrel, shortages of
foreign exchange are a daily reality. And
Nigeria, Africa’s largest oil producer, has
little domestic capacity to refine gasoline
and thus must pay to re-import its own
oil. The consequent lack of foreign
currency has driven up prices for
everything from food to construction
materials, further hobbling an economy
that shrank by 1.6 percent in 2016.
Today much of the
facility beyond the
central administration
block resembles the
set for a post-
apocalyptic action film
The need for diversification, and the
employment it could provide, is made
more urgent by a surging population.
With about 200 million people and
growing rapidly, Nigeria is by far the
most populous country in Africa. Without
durable sources of employment, a
nation that’s spent much of the past
decade fighting insurgencies in its arid
north could descend further into
disorder.
Yet the record of privatization in Nigeria
is decidedly mixed. In the cement
industry, it was largely a success:
Investors succeeded in reviving
production, making the country a net
exporter of the material. One of the early
buyers, Aliko Dangote, is now Africa’s
richest man. By contrast, efforts to sell off
power plants have failed to end blackouts,
still a daily occurrence in much of
Nigeria.
Steel has long been an obvious target.
Nigeria has vast deposits of iron ore,
much of it in Kogi State, the same region
where Ajaokuta is located. Transformed
into steel, the ore could make other
domestic industries, such as construction,
far more viable.
Those intentions underpinned the
construction of Ajaokuta, which when it
began in 1979 was envisioned at
Pharaonic scale. At full capacity, it was
intended to produce as much as 3 million
metric tons of steel annually, enough to
largely close the gap between Nigeria’s
current steel consumption and domestic
output. Yet the most critical piece of
infrastructure, a rail line that would
connect the plant to iron-ore mines and
deliver the finished product, was never
completed.
Today much of the facility beyond the
central administration block resembles
the set for a post-apocalyptic action film.
The blast furnace, conveyor belts and
giant cranes to move materials—many
inscribed with the words “Made in
USSR”—stand idle in scrubby fields. Pipes
as wide as manhole covers are coated in
creeping grass, and cattle graze in
clearings meant to store coal for the
furnace.

Steel complex. Photographer: David Malingha

Of the 10,000 houses envisioned for
workers, the 4,000 that were completed
are occupied mostly by retirees. The
current workforce of about 1,500 civil
servants is tasked primarily with keeping
parts of the plant in serviceable
condition. The combined 120 kilometers
(75 miles) of internal roads and railroads,
as well as the school, the library, and the
hospital for workers and their families,
are largely unused. The runway of an
airstrip built to serve the area needs to be
resurfaced.
Nigeria’s government says it’s serious
about transforming Ajaokuta from an
embarrassment into a viable asset. The
plant’s biggest booster is Kayode Fayemi,
the mines and steel development
minister. While Fayemi concedes, with
significant understatement, that the first
30-plus years of Ajaokuta “didn’t quite
work out as planned, which is the
Nigerian story sometimes,” he said fixing
it is now a national priority.
“Ajaokuta is central to our diversification
strategy,” he said in his office in Abuja.
Building up domestic steelmaking, he
said, is “the least we could do for
ourselves as a country and for our
manufacturing sector.”
“This is an alternative
to oil”
Work has begun on the long-awaited rail
spur line, which may accept test trains as
soon as August. The government also will
need to decide who should own and
operate the plant. Ajaokuta is currently
controlled by the state after a previous
private-sector operator, Global Steel
Holdings Ltd., had its concession
terminated.
While the government has said it plans to
solicit bids for Ajaokuta from new
investors, a group of lawmakers, with
some union support, is pushing to keep
the plant under public ownership. They
argue that only paltry offers are likely for
a facility that still requires huge
investment. Senate Majority Leader
Ahmad Lawan proposed legislation to
that effect in the upper house on May 8,
against the government’s wishes.
Fayemi says he’s convinced that Nigeria
can no longer afford not to process its
own resources. “The idea that we must be
taking our iron ore out, our gold out,
every raw material, for others to add
value, and then send back to us to pay
probably 10 times what it’s worth when
we send them out is unthinkable,” he
said.
He won’t be around to see if that pans
out. He said May 14 that he will leave at
the end of the month to run for governor
in his home state of Ekiti. And Sumaila,
the Ajaokuta administrator, said he
doesn’t know whether he will return to
Shell or not when his term at Ajaokuta
ends in October 2020.
Wearing moccasins, a black short-sleeved
and collarless suit, with a pen in hand,
Sumaila says he remains optimistic as he
walks around his spacious office.
“This is an alternative to oil,” he said.
“The complex can be up and running two
years after the government makes the
strategic decision on the direction it wants
to take.”
